The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 88

"I see." Neera understood, glancing in the direction of the back of the car. Neera explained to Jean as their eyes met, "Even if you are going on a business trip, the dipping bath must continue, and the medicated diets must be eaten on time."

Jean nodded, saying, "Thank you for reminding me to follow the instructions given by the doctor, Ms. Garcia."

Neera nodded, and they said their goodbyes before driving off. Lan stated while driving, "Sire, Ms. Garcia is really a considerate person, and she also instructed you to take care of your body."

Jean agreed in the back row, gazing out the window without saying anything. In truth, he did not need to travel to Claret City for business, and he only did so to get away from the wedding ceremony. Mr. Frederic was free to do anything he wanted since he was looking forward to the wedding taking place. But Jean won't be attending; he had nothing to do with this wedding!

...

Neera arrived at the cafe half an hour later. Alfonso arrived in person rather than designating someone else to come. He was already there and waiting in the private room. When Neera entered the private room, she wasn't happy. "Why bother getting a private room when you merely come to return an item?"

She was alert. Alfonso rebuked her angrily and said, "Do you want me to take out your mother's jewels in front of the public? Your mother's jewelry is worth a lot of money!"

Neera stared at him as if trying to understand his thoughts. "Why not? Do you believe that someone would be so stupid as to grab it in public?"

"Where is the Share Transfer Agreement? I want to sign it now because I'm busy," she questioned as she took a seat across from him.

Alfonso was furious with her attitude, but he pushed the file across. Neera carefully examined the document to ensure that it was accurate before signing it. The file contained two sets of documents! After returning one of them, she inquired, "Where are the relics?" Alfonso gave her the velvet box. Neera took a closer look and discovered that this set of red diamond jewelry was an expensive and unique treasure. It made sense why he had been hiding it and refusing to hand it over. After making sure everything was good, she didn't intend to stay any longer. Neera got up and was about to leave.

"Neera, you should know that there is nothing free in this world, right?" Alfonso said quickly. "Since you have taken the items, you must help me! After all, I am your father."

Neera gave him a chilly stare before abruptly asking, "Father? I don't have a father. I am aware that you wouldn't let me leave easily. What do you want?"

"You still need to marry into the Beauvort family", Alfonso said with an evil smile on his face.

Neera chuckled and was about to say it was impossible, then she spotted him holding the phone and continued to add, "I know, your three children attend Kingsley Kindergarten. Do you want to look at the current scenario over there?" He showed her the screen of his phone, as he had stated.

Neera noticed numerous bodyguards guarding the kindergarten. Neera's body tensed, and she wanted to stab Alfonso to death. She yelled, "Alfonso, don't you dare touch them!" Alfonso felt confident and calm when he heard her warning.

He said, "Naturally, I won't touch them, but the premise is that tomorrow you will marry into the Beauvort family. If not, all I can do is get someone to bring the kid over. When you reach a compromise, I'll release them! It is entirely up to you!"

That was a blatant threat!
